From Farm to Plate: A Unified Mission for Food Safety and Public Health
In today’s interconnected world, the journey of food—from farms to our forks—is longer and more complex than ever before. Along this path, food safety becomes not just a regulatory requirement but a shared social responsibility. Every link in the food supply chain—from farmers and transporters to processors, retailers, and consumers—plays a critical role in safeguarding public health and trust.
At Analytical Quality Solutions Pvt. Ltd. (AQS), we take pride in being more than consultants—we are your strategic partners in building a safer, scientifically sound, and globally compliant food system.
1. Producers: The First Line of Defense
Food safety begins at the soil level. Farmers, cultivators, and livestock handlers lay the foundation through Good Agricultural Practices (GAP)—ensuring clean water usage, minimal pesticide residues, and hygienic harvesting.
How AQS supports producers:
- Soil and water testing
- GAP and traceability training
- Compliance with ISO 22000, FSSAI, and GHP right from the source
2. Logistics & Transport: Keeping Safety in Motion
Once harvested, food must be transported without compromising its quality. Whether through cold-chain logistics or standard freight, contamination risks must be tightly controlled.
AQS ensures quality in transit by:
- Auditing cold-chain systems
- Setting up hygienic transport SOPs
- Training drivers and handlers in food-safe logistics
3. Processors & Manufacturers: Precision with Responsibility
Transforming raw food into consumable products demands scientific precision. Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) must be embedded in every stage.
AQS empowers processors through:
- HACCP design and validation
- Establishment of internal audit and QA systems
- Certification assistance for FSSC 22000, BRCGS, ISO 9001, and more
4. Packaging & Labeling: Communicating Safety
Packaging not only preserves freshness but communicates vital information to consumers—ingredient lists, expiry dates, allergen info, and more.
AQS enhances packaging standards by:
- Verifying compliance with FSSAI, EU, and FDA labeling norms
- Implementing batch coding and traceability systems
- Setting SOPs for packaging line hygiene
5. Retailers & Distributors: Guardians at the Last Mile
Retailers and distributors are the final checkpoint before the product reaches consumers. Ensuring hygienic storage, date tracking, and customer guidance is essential.
AQS supports retail chains by:
- Performing hygiene and safety audits
- Implementing Good Hygiene Practices (GHP)
- Training teams in food safety awareness and compliance
6. Food Handlers & Consumers: Final Custodians of Health
In hotels, restaurants, catering services, and homes, improper handling can undo the safety ensured upstream. Education and awareness are key.
AQS builds safety culture at the endpoint by:
- Conducting training programs for HoReCa (Hotels, Restaurants, Catering)
- Promoting sanitation and hygiene SOPs
- Educating community kitchens and households
7. Regulators & Certifying Bodies: The Rule Makers
Agencies like FSSAI, BIS, and ISO define the guardrails of food safety. But navigating these frameworks can be challenging for businesses.
AQS bridges the gap by:
- Preparing clients for inspections and certifications
- Offering test method development and audit readiness
- Updating clients on regulatory changes and best practices
